NHS UNDER THREAT FROM TTIP

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, now being negotiated stealthily between the USA and the European Union, is a fundamental threat to the National Health Service.

It's designed to allow international big business access to the public money that funds the NHS.

It will treat our public services as goods to be traded like any other merchandise. NHS services will be sold off to the big American health corporations.

Worse, the TIP will deter future governments from restoring the NHS. Using a racket called the 'Investor-State Dispute Procedure', the corporations would be allowed to sue the government for massive sums for 'loss of profits'.
